Definitions

  • a locking device of an automotive door comprising a catching device mounted in said door and including a hook member and a lever member, said hook member being locked and unlocked when said lever member moves in first and second directions, respectively, a key cylinder mounted to said door, said key cylinder being rotatable about an axis thereof relative to said door only when handled by a specific key, an arm secured to said key cylinder and extending radially outward therefrom, a rod pivotally connected to said arm and extending therefrom toward said lever member so that rotation of the key cylinder about the axis thereof in either direction induces an axial movement of the rod and a movement of said lever member in said first and second directions, respectively, and a play providing device for providing a lost motion between the rotation of the key cylinder and the movement of the lever member, characterized in that said play providing device is interposed between said rod and said lever member and that a deflector is connected to said rod to move therewith, said deflector having at least a portion which extend
  • the connecting manner between the key cylinder 26 and the arm 28 is shown by Fig. 3.
  • the end of the key cylinder 26 is formed with a projection 26a on its cylindrical end.
  • the arm 28 has a circular opening 28a with a concentric recess 28b.
  • the cylindrical end of the key cylinder 26 is received in the circular opening 28 with the projection 26a located in the recess 28b.
  • the effective length of the recess 28b is determined greater than the thickness of the projection 26a.
  • the key 38 Upon requirement of unlocking the door 10, the key 38 is inserted in the key cylinder 26 from outside and turned in the opposite direction (toward the far side of Fig. 4). With this key operation, the rod 30 is lifted up, causing the stopper 48 to push the perforated projection 44 upward thus moving the lever 32 upwardly. The catching device 34 thus assumes the unlocked condition. Because of the close or contact positional relationship between the stopper 48 and the projection 44 in the neutral position of the key cylinder 26, the counter-clockwise turning of the key 38 induces instant unlocking of the catching device 34. Then, the key 38 is turned clockwise, rotating the key cylinder 26 toward the neutral position for drawing out the key 38.
